Inflammatory effects of snake venom metalloproteinases [PDF]
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2005 Metalloproteinases are abundant enzymes in crotaline and viperine snake venoms. They are relevant in the pathophysiology of envenomation, being responsible for local and systemic hemorrhage frequently observed in the victims.

Processing of Snake Venom Metalloproteinases: Generation of Toxin Diversity and Enzyme Inactivation
Toxins, 2016 Snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) are abundant in the venoms of vipers and rattlesnakes, playing important roles for the snake adaptation to different environments, and are related to most of the pathological effects of these venoms in human victims.

C5a-C5aR1 Axis Activation Drives Envenomation Immunopathology by the Snake Naja annulifera
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Systemic complement activation drives a plethora of pathological conditions, but its role in snake envenoming remains obscure. Here, we explored complement’s contribution to the physiopathogenesis of Naja annulifera envenomation.

Colubrid Venom Composition: An -Omics Perspective
Toxins, 2016 Snake venoms have been subjected to increasingly sensitive analyses for well over 100 years, but most research has been restricted to front-fanged snakes, which actually represent a relatively small proportion of extant species of advanced snakes ...
